Chapter 196: What should come will always come

May, Cannes, outside is dark and deep.

In the dark night, scattered drizzles floated in Cannes, making the sleeping town more quiet and peaceful. The breeze mixed with rain stars blew into the room. Due to the busy judges' work and the ups and downs in their hearts, Gan Tao, who had not slept all night for a while, suddenly woke up.

He walked to the window with his upper body barefoot barefoot, then turned around and grabbed the phone at the head of the bed in his hand, glanced at the time of the phone. It was four in the morning local time, and the time difference between France and China was seven hours, and it should be eleven o'clock in the afternoon.

Standing in front of the window for a long time, the sky outside was still dark. He rubbed his temples on both sides of his cheeks, sat down, picked up his knees and looked outside with his shiny eyes, waiting for dawn!

As time flowed slowly, he was panicked and nervous, and felt powerless. When a white ribbon appeared in the sky, he had already covered his entire cheek with his hands, his shoulders trembled constantly, and the extremely depressing sob covered the entire room with a layer of sorrow.

"Mom, I'm very good abroad. You and grandma take good care of yourself..."

"Haruko, there will be many aftershocks now. You can take Yaya to stay at Nakakaixuan for a while..."

"Guangxiao, I want to intercept some funds that I collected last time to build and give Tongxin Film to the headquarters building of Gaihai City..."

“I’m very good abroad!”

“I’m very good abroad!”

“I’m very good abroad!”

...

Listening to the care from all directions, he kept muttering this sentence. Yes, he was very good. He had a car when he went out, but he didn't get into the house. He was wearing famous brands and clothes from all over the world, but his country was suffering from a natural disaster that shocked the world!

"sweet……"

"Mr. Chairman, I will conscientiously perform my judgeship duties until the perfect moment of the Sixty-first Cannes Film Festival!"

At 8:40 in the morning, when he simply packed up and walked out of the hotel room with red eyes, he ran into Seanpan who came out of the next room. He thanked him and said so.

"Gan, you are a very responsible actor. I hope you will have the opportunity to work together in the future!" Seanpan extended his hand to him.

Instead of waiting for the coming, his heart fell down after the scene in his memory appeared.

He thought, perhaps the people of the motherland, who are thousands of miles away, have long been united and united.

Now, he should first work hard to play his role at the International Film Festival in Cannes, because the country behind him is called China!

With this idea, he was excited to survive day and night. Finally, on the eve of the opening of the film festival, when another good news came out in China, he could sleep peacefully.

"Dingling, Dingling, Mr. Gan, are there several gentlemen and ladies from the same country as you who want to see you, can I take them up?"

"You can bring it now!" After speaking to the customer's phone call, he put on his trousers and white shirt in a few seconds. As for the huge eye booze left by deep sleep, he could only wipe it with his hands.

He didn't know who the person was, and he didn't ask, but as long as he came from China, even if he was a beggar, he was like a relative or a family member in France!

"Dingdong"

He opened the door in three steps and two steps. There were really many people coming. He first extended his hand to the leader, Jia Zhangke, who had two thick eyebrows, and called out, "Director Jia!" Then he said one by one, "Sister Chen, Miss Zhao!"

Jia Zhangke came to Cannes this time with the film "Twenty-Four Cities", and the sister Chen and Miss Zhao mentioned him refer to Chen Chong and Zhao Tao, who are the two heroines in "Twenty-Four Cities".

After shook hands with a group of people, he mistook the person and put him into the room. When he was dissipating the smoke, he asked Jia Zhangke and his party, "Who did you come?"

"Just arrived!" Lao Jia finished speaking, and said with a bitter face, "Do you know what's happening in China?"

"The world is shocked!" He sat on the edge of the bed, sighed, and said, "Director Jia just came to me, must have any ideas? Just say something!"

"Let's hold a fundraising campaign during the Cannes Film Festival. It's only a matter of doing its part. Sichuan Province urgently needs all kinds of supplies!"

"Okay, Director Jia, come and initiate it. I'll be the pawn for you." As soon as he said, the telephone in the guest room rang again. He tilted his body and listened a few words. He nodded and said, "Let me go."

Seeing this scene, Jia Zhangke pressed the cigarette butt and stood up and apologized, "There are guests? Then let's go back first!"

"Where is the hotel booking?" he said curiously.

Every year, Cannes is crowded. Not to mention better hotels, even the local ordinary houses in Cannes are sold out, and there is no market price. Lao Jia and his group rushed to the scene before the opening. Obviously, the crew was not well funded and could not stay in hotels near the Movie Palace or even local private houses.

"City!"

He waved his hand, "It's too far away, it's not a few hours before dawn. You can go to the suite and deal with it for a while. The people who came were not guests, the director of Tongxin Film and the Painted Skin!"

"Sister Chen and Zhao Tao go in and rest. We just need to smoke and talk." The photographer of "The Legend of Twenty-Four Cities" suggested.

Seeing Jia Zhangke and others looking at him, Gan Tao nodded. Although the film festival was about to open at dawn, it would be enough for him to sleep for the first half of the night, and it would be fine if he slept less.

"Mr. Gan!" After the door opened, Meng Guangxiao, who had always been steady, saw a stranger in the room, instantly suppressed the word Taozi, which was in Sang Zi's eyes.

At the door, Gan Tao frowned and looked at Meng Guangxiao who had been talking to him frequently these two days, and said extremely dissatisfiedly, "What are you doing when you come to Cannes?"

Faced with this natural disaster in China, he, a foresighted man, was so powerless and cowardly!

For a few days, the frustration tortured him so much that he couldn't sleep at night and was tossing and turning. He could only count on Tongxin Film, which had already achieved certain results, to make up for his own sins. Therefore, he intercepted part of Meng Guangxiao's development funds and repeatedly asked him to help him buy supplies and deliver them to the front line. Unexpectedly, Meng Guangxiao appeared in Cannes for the premiere of a movie.

Although the atmosphere inside and outside the house did not reach the point of tension, no one who could get here was a personal skill. Gan Tao's simple dissatisfaction made everyone instantly hear something strange.

The concentric employee outside the house held his breath and did not dare to show off. Chen Jiashang, the director of "Painted Skin", had to go up and shout, "Taozai!"

"Director Chen, you have been on the plane for about ten hours. Go in and rest for a while. Guangxiao and I went out to say we could work!"

Standing with a smile, Meng Guangxiao, who was not angry at all, signaled him to go out, he spoke to Chen Jia.

Cannes was a little cold in early May. Under the dim street lights, Meng Guangxiao tightened his shirt and thought about how to speak to Gan Tao, who had his hands in his pockets.

He has been working in Tongxin for several years. As the actual general manager of Tongxin Film, he knows everything about whether it is the salary of the health care aunt in the company, the monthly turnover of seventeen shopping malls; the strengths of Tongxin Film and the shortcomings of Tongxin Film and Television.

It is because of his special understanding that he realized the importance of the 100 million yuan proposed by Gan Tao that is not worthy of internal troubles, but external troubles are imminent.

Capitalists all know that Huaxia Entertainment is making great strides, so it is not only Tongxin Film and Television that has the intention to build theaters. It also has Yida, which has an extremely strong background, Huayi, which has many celebrities under it, etc.

Compared with these joint-stock companies that invested billions of dollars in the construction of cinemas, even built film and television cities and film and television bases, the Tongxin Cinema, which has only seventeen cinemas, is so small and so pure.

Meng Guangxiao's opinion is that all the peace and stability are almost forced to the edge of the cliff by their colleagues. If Jiang Province, which is a flood in comparison with the whole of China, rushed out, the future unity will be eroded by her colleagues step by step and become a laughing stock.

Because of Gan Tao of Tongxin Pictures, and even the senior executives of Tongxin Pictures, are far-sighted by all outsiders. Tongxin Pictures is the second company in China to engage in commercial real estate after Yida, and has developed so well in Jiang Province!

In order for Tongxin Film to not become a laughing stock, and for the promise that Meng Guangxiao was short of money, many of them, he wished that a bank would lend him hundreds of billions of dollars, so that he could occupy two provinces and one city around Jiang Province in one fell swoop.

Therefore, he ran to Cannes. Because there were no more than 100 billion yuan, the 100 million yuan that Gan Tao asked for was so important!

"Taozi, let me tell you this." Meng Guangxiao frowned first, and then slowly said, "Tongxin Film has the 100 million you want, but once you give it to you, the company may miss many projects that can obviously make profits! It will affect the company's subsequent development!"

"Be more specific." Gan Tao lit a cigarette, frowned and sat down in the middle of the two street lights.

"There is no way to be specific, but I can give examples!"

"Tell me!"

"Buy a piece of land for 100 million yuan, and it will rise to 120 million yuan in half a year, and it will rise to 200 million yuan in a year! You have been saying that the housing prices in China will not fall within ten years, so you should be able to think of this." Meng Guangxiao squatted down and said simply and clearly.

He nodded and asked in frustratedly, "Does anyone agree with my approach?"

"No!" Meng Guangxiao said firmly, blew the position beside Gan Tao, patted his back, and comforted him, "I am like you, and I am also a Chinese. When facing this huge disaster, I will feel sad, and I will feel sorry for the children who crawled out of the rubble, and will help them, but there is a word called "With the ability of you, you can do good things with the future of thousands of employees in your heart, and I will never agree!"

He said in a casual tone, "You forgot Brother Zhang's last words? This money should have been used like this!"

"If Mr. Zhang is here, he will be the same as mine." Meng Guangxiao said with a firm word and stood up and said earnestly, "Taozi, Tongxin Film Industry is growing up a little stronger. For your kindness, don't say donating 100 million or 1 billion. Even if you want to build schools and nursing homes for poor places in China; let all children have study and the elderly have support, I agree, but it won't work now!"

"Mr. Meng, you probably forgot that I am not telling you about this as an actor!"

Gan Tao supported the ground with one hand, as if he had used all his strength to barely say the above words.
